How to Find an Inmate at Montgomery Correctional Center
Members of the public can look for someone in custody by using the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster. Jail rosters usually list basic booking information such as the person’s name, booking date, charges, bond information when available, and current custody status. Records are not always searchable immediately after arrest because booking, identification, medical screening, and classification can take several hours. If a person does not appear right away, check again later or contact the jail or the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office for guidance.
